But gedit has a "select printer" iface, rigth? Anyway, is there ANY chance at all for this to make it into FC2? I really can wait to reinstall the machines at school...

Actually, what would be really nice would be a command-line interface to this similar to what QTCups used to be. It would then allow for *any* non-gnome app to utilize the printing infrastructure in a sane way.

Cheers, Ken

Is XPrint supposed to be a solution for this? I've only skimmed briefly over the info about the new xorg release at freedesktop.org, so I'm not sure if it would allow similar functionality.

To the guy who asked about autologin as root: 1. DO NOT SEND HTML MAIL to a mailing-list - doing so will: - get your (HTML-part-of-the) message scrubbed - which means deleted - for all users using digest mode. I (and probably many others didn't bother to read your mail at all - only the title...) - Generally get people anoyed at you => not a good way to get help 2. This should probably be asked at fedora-list, not here 3. GDM autologin of root is not possible for security reasons. Go hack'ing (no, not crack. hack the code if you want it badly) 4. You should not use the root-account on a daily basis (not even i winblows - it makes you more volunerable to viruses etc). Go make yourself a real USER account - and then use "su -" to get root when needed. 5. You probably knew this - but rh9 is old and not as "gut geignet" for newbies (why do i think you are a newbie? Hmm...) 6. Welcome to the world of Linux. Enjoy your stay. And you probably made all the worst mailing-list mistakes (exept using "HEEELP!!!!" as subject), so your will probably have very few problems from now on.
